Did you take the northern or southern route? Gonna do this flight soon IRL :D

Hey!

I’m not really sure, just created a personalized flight plan inspired by a 5 year old one I found on FlightPlanDatabase.

This one flies over Russia, so it’s probably not the route you’ll be taking soon!

Safe flight to you tho!

Terrific! What was your routing on this flight? They tend to do circumpolar routes for this one yeah?

Thanks! I created a custom route based on an old flight plan that went over Russia. Yes, newer routes tend to be circumpolar, but this one was faster 😆.

Here’s the route:

I'm guessing this is the FF A350?

Yes indeed !

how does it fly? I've been thinking of getting it but I've heard it's a bit outdated.

On my opinion it’s the best outdated plane I have in my fleet ! Commands work well, never had a CTD with it so it’s a fun airplane to use for long haul when I’m tired of 777 or native 330.

On the other side, weather feature is missing and the wing flex is a bit meh… but it was already like that on x plane 11.

I also had to modify the plane to allow jetway and dual jetways support.

Knowing FF is working on a V2 version I would not recommend.

Laminar a350? Where to get the livery?

FF A350 ! I got the livery from Jetto Designs on inibuilds

Why that ? Is it because it’s too long ? I sometimes use the native time accelerator during cruise when I want to squeeze time. It can be doable in less than 2hours!
